      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      A dedicated dual-core x86_64 instance offering strong single-threaded execution and balanced memory for lightweight general-purpose workloads.

      General Purpose

      Alibaba Cloud ecs.g8ae.large is a general-purpose instance featuring 2 dedicated vCPUs and 8.0 GB of RAM on the x86_64 architecture. Powered by an AMD EPYC 9T34 processor running at 3.4 GHz, it delivers strong single-core CPU performance, ranking in the top 25% in stress-ng benchmarks. However, its multi-core performance and database operations are weak, falling into the bottom 25% and bottom 10% respectively. The instance lacks local storage and integrated GPUs, relying on a 3 Gbps baseline network bandwidth. While the dedicated CPU allocation ensures consistent performance for single-threaded tasks, the low core count and average memory bandwidth limit its efficiency for parallel workloads. It is best suited for lightweight general-purpose applications, basic utility scripts, and workloads that do not require high multi-threaded throughput or local storage.

      Workload Profiles

      0.199Score
      Precomputed compound score for Cache Intensive workloads. A weighted average (geometric mean) of benchmark scores compared to their medians: score = ∏ (x_i / m_i)^(w_i / Σw). The score of 1.0 represents a synthetic baseline server with the median performance of each component benchmark; 0.5 means roughly half the performance; and 2.0 means twice the performance of that reference profile. Component weights: 50% Redis RPS (pipeline=1, SET), 20% Redis RPS (pipeline=16, SET), 10% PassMark Memory Mark (composite), 10% Memory bandwidth (read, 16 MB ~ L3), 10% PassMark single-thread CPU. Rationale for component selection: In-memory key-value store workload, mixing direct Redis performance metrics with memory speed and latency benchmarks, and single-core CPU performance profiles.
